    "Jersey City has so many places to go eat and hang out or have a coffee and do work. So many spots with a beautiful view. Absolutely not my cup of tea to live in. Everything is an apartment complex, so many people just living on top of each other. Driving is chaotic there’s always an immense amount of traffic. Parking is ridiculous! "

This was the best time of my entire trip and it was amazing seeing everyone and seeing the incredible sights everywhere and being surrounded by amazing people. The atmosphere was amazing and the food was so good and the people were so welcoming and friendly. My family loved it and the food they loved was always great too."
